Meet the Team

Get to know the women behind HerSpace.

HerSpace is built on the hard work and enthusiasm of a lovely team of women. At HQ we plan a fantastic array of events across our Spaces., alongside some Unites events which bring us all together at a place non-Space specific. We then have some wonderful Ambassadors who are members who help us with event ideas, whilst some also host some events for us e.g. monthly walks or quiz nights.  Get to know them below and make sure to say hello at your next event!

HerSpace HQ

There are 2 of us who are responsible for all the admin that occurs behind the scenes of HerSpace. Between us, we come up with event ideas, host events, manage memberships and member queries and the whatsapp groups. 

Hi I’m Charlotte- I live in Congleton with my husband, three children Evelyn and twins Freddie and Arthur, dog Bertie and 2 rabbits Ernie and Lily! I set up HerSpace in 2021 as a way of escaping some of the stresses of daily life, providing opportunities for women to connect with others as themselves and also improve their mental wellbeing.  It has been wonderful to see the friendships that have been made and all of the wonderful events that we have had over the last few years. I really hope that HerSpace brings to your life the amazing benefits that it has to mine, and I look forward to meeting you at an event soon.

Hi I’m Libby- I live in Congleton with my husband, two teenage daughters and gorgeous labradoodle, and my role is to assist Charlotte with the business administration and development. I’ve worked previously in property Law and with Children’s mental health and SEND requirements in education. I am also a co-opted Governor at a local primary school. I love to go on long walks and enjoy reading. I also love a bit of musical theatre and spending quality time with friends and family. I was a member of HerSpace for a few years before joining the team. I particularly enjoyed trying new crafts and things that I might otherwise not have gotten around to arranging for myself.  Life can be so hectic and making time for yourself is very important. I hope to share all I have benefited from with other women as I arrange events for the community.

Ambassadors

Our ambassadors are lovely members of HerSpace who are passionate about our community and help us to run some of the events. You will see who is hosting the event on our website and can put a face to a name below!

Hi I’m Jenn- I live in Congleton with my husband and daughter. I was originally a member of HerSpace back at the very beginning in 2021, and thanks for the book club re-igniting my passion for reading, I have since become the General Lead for HerSpace book club, and really enjoy running the Congleton book club. I also help out with running some of the events, particularly anything that gives you a pamper or I do love a great pub quiz! I really look forward to meeting you. 

Hi, I’m Helen- I live on a farm in Bosley, with my husband, Eric and 2 children. I grow my own vegetables, look after my animals on the farm and volunteer at my children’s school. I really enjoy my role in the HerSpace team, where I am responsible for hosting some of the Macclesfield events. I originally joined HerSpace as a member in 2021, as a chance to make more time for myself, make new friends and enjoy new activities that I would never have done before. HerSpace has given me so much more. It has allowed me to join in with a wonderful group of people and grow in confidence. My anxiety and depression has decreased as a result, and I strive to empower other ladies so they can benefit as I have.

Hi I’m Paulina- I live in Congleton with my husband and gorgeous pooch who you can see me with in my pic! I love going for long walks, and volunteer at a few local charities too. I also have a huge passion for reading and after being a member for a few months, took on the role of Book Club co-ordinator for Macclesfield. I absolutely love the role and have met such a wonderful group of ladies. We enjoy author visits, great discussions and the occasional movie night for a book we have read! Please do share any book ideas you have as I am always looking for new ideas.

Hi my name is Katy. I live in Macclesfield with my husband and our cat called Tuxedo (who is most definitely in charge!). I retired last year and joined HerSpace to try lots of new and different things and to meet new people. I love travelling, discovering new places and experiencing different cultures (and food!!). I also enjoy walking, running (not very far and not very fast!) and cycling (although on an e-bike these days!!)…basically anything outdoorsy! I am very excited at becoming a HerSpace Ambassador and looking forward to meeting you all soon.

Hi, I’m Sarah – I moved to Congleton recently with my partner and little poodle. I am keen to connect to women in my local community and enjoy going out for good food, chats over coffee/cake and enjoying the beautiful countryside and walks in the local area. You will find me helping with hosting the monthly community HerWalks.

Hi, I’m Amber. I moved to Bollington to live with my boyfriend around a year and a half ago. I have a rescue staffy called Susan who takes up a lot of my free time! I joined HerSpace as soon as I moved to the area and it has been such a valuable thing for me. I have done so (so!) many fun activities and met so many great people. I have experienced moving somewhere before and feeling as though I didn’t know anyone, so I am very enthusiastic about HerSpace and so jumped at the chance to become an ambassador. I hope I’ll be a friendly face at events for everyone, and may even try to think of some crazy/fun events myself. You will also find me hosting the monthly community HerWalks.
